In fact, the phone is compliant with the U.S. military standard test.

In designing the V20’s incredible audio features, LG collaborated with renowned European audio brand B&O Play, under the umbrella of Bang & Olufsen – the manufacturer of a complete line of audio and video products. The fastest-growing stand-alone unit of Bang & Olufsen takes the audio game of V20 several notches higher, assuring one to ‘Play More’.

The latest premium flagship smartphone is developed for “story creators” – anyone who has a story to unfold, a moment to capture or an experience to share. The larger display phone is the perfect balance between productivity and best in the class device to capture videos, incredible audio along with regular and wide-angle photos.

With the latest flagship phone, LG introduces the first smartphone in the industry to feature 32-bit Hi-Fi Quad DAC (digital to analog converter) capabilities, bringing a superior audio experience to mobile phones.

The LG V20 is also the world’s first smartphone to come with wide-angle cameras on both the front and back of the phone.

When it comes to video recording, the V20’s Steady Record 2.0 helps neutralize shaky images using both Electronics Image Stabilization (EIS) and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS 2.0) built into Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor. Moreover, the high quality video wouldn’t be worth watching without an equally high quality of audio. Therefore, the V20 captures audio using formats similar to those used in professional video equipment. The powerhouse smartphone also supports optimal playback, minimizing distortion and noise.

The HD Audio Recorder uses three high Acoustic Overload Point (AOP) microphones which empower users to create studio-quality recordings.

The V20 comes with the mobile user interface UX 5.0+, making even the professional-quality multimedia functions a cakewalk for users. It’s also the world’s first smartphone interface specifically designed to work with the Android 7.0 Nougat OS.
